Ketaphos, the God of Illusions

The god of illusion of the Korinthian Pantheon. A mischievous and cunning god, he loves to play jokes and trick others into falling in deadly traps. Regular worship to him is solely done by illusionists and con artists. Other occasions to pray to him is done by people who have secrets or want to protect themselves from deceit while doing something important.

Worshipers
Ketaphos has quite a small following. His priests, known as Ketaphosians, or Worshipers of the Mistshadow, wear silver masks and often disguise themselves to deceive those around them. Ketaphosians will speak the truth only to other Ketaphosns. High-level clerics of the Ketaphosian faith are called Mistcallers.

Every morning, and on every moonlit night, Ketaphosns lay face down and pray to the Lord of the Mists. If there is any mist, Ketaphosians will walk through it and pray. The most revered act in the Ketaphosn faith is the "Unmasking", a purification ritual performed when new followers entered the faith or if a follower changed rank. During the ritual, the follower will walk barefaced among their peers while the clergy will hold up candles and reflective surfaces.

Not widely worshiped, the majority of his worshipers are users of illusion magic. While Ketaphos may have a few dedicated followers, a worshiper of the Korinthian pantheon often will pay homage to him before an important decision or judgment.
